Description
Shut the Box is a fun and simple game for 2 to 4 players that can be learned in no time. The goal is to match rolls of the dice to numbers on the game board, which features levers labelled from one to nine or twelve. Players take turns rolling two dice and then try to knock down the corresponding levers, either by matching the combined value of the dice or by finding two numbers that add up to that total. The game is all about strategy and a little bit of luck, and it's over in just 30 minutes. With no necessary in-game text, anyone can play, and the math-based gameplay makes it a great choice for fans of dice games. Whether you're playing the traditional pub version or one of the other scoring methods, the aim is to be the last player standing or to "shut the box" and win instantly.
